\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}\phantom{1}\\20\overline{)340}\\\end{array}
Use the 1^{st} digit 3 from dividend 340
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}0\phantom{2}\\20\overline{)340}\\\end{array}
Since 3 is less than 20, use the next digit 4 from dividend 340 and add 0 to the quotient
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}0\phantom{3}\\20\overline{)340}\\\end{array}
Use the 2^{nd} digit 4 from dividend 340
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}01\phantom{4}\\20\overline{)340}\\\phantom{20)}\underline{\phantom{}20\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{20)}14\\\end{array}
Find closest multiple of 20 to 34. We see that 1 \times 20 = 20 is the nearest. Now subtract 20 from 34 to get reminder 14. Add 1 to quotient.
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}01\phantom{5}\\20\overline{)340}\\\phantom{20)}\underline{\phantom{}20\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{20)}140\\\end{array}
Use the 3^{rd} digit 0 from dividend 340
\begin{array}{l}\phantom{20)}017\phantom{6}\\20\overline{)340}\\\phantom{20)}\underline{\phantom{}20\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{20)}140\\\phantom{20)}\underline{\phantom{}140\phantom{}}\\\phantom{20)999}0\\\end{array}
Find closest multiple of 20 to 140. We see that 7 \times 20 = 140 is the nearest. Now subtract 140 from 140 to get reminder 0. Add 7 to quotient.
\text{Quotient: }17 \text{Reminder: }0
Since 0 is less than 20, stop the division. The reminder is 0. The topmost line 017 is the quotient. Remove all zeros at the start of the quotient to get the actual quotient 17.
